C-ESTA™ Line (Containing DAE Complex™)
Jan Marini Skin Research C-ESTA containing DAE Complex, is a revolutionary concept in anti-aging based on the first topical form of lipid soluble Vitamin C that is stable and able to be absorbed. C-ESTA is the culmination of years of intensive medical research by Nicholas Perricone, M.D. that has resulted in a patented delivery vehicle, combined with other essential stimulatory factors, that can actually address the appearance of sagging and redundant tissue.
Age Intervention™ Line
Age Intervention Face is a breakthrough in anti-aging technology for adult women. Age Intervention Face addresses the appearance of aging skin changes by targeting two critical areas: hormonal levels and changes associated with cumulative sun exposure.
Bioglycolic™ Line
Glycolic acid is what is known as an "alpha hydroxy acid". Alpha hydroxy acids or "AHAs" are a family of acids that occur naturally in various fruits and foods. Glycolic acid, found in sugar cane, is the AHA that has received the most attention medically because of all the AHAs, it has the smallest molecule. This small molecular weight enables glycolic acid to penetrate more effectively and to ultimately bring about the most dramatic and beneficial changes of all the AHAs, often collectively referred to as fruit acids.
Antioxidant Group™
Tremendous interest and research is currently being focused on antioxidants and their value in helping to reverse and prevent free radical damage. By definition, free radicals are highly unstable oxygen molecules with unpaired electrons that must seek other molecules with stable electrons to achieve their own stabilization. Attaching to the stable electrons of other molecules accomplishes stability, but as a result the "good" molecule is then transformed by the free radical into another free radical whose function and shape is now altered. Free radicals work quickly. In mere seconds, one free radical can trigger a chain reaction that produces thousands of additional free radicals. The damage caused by the free radicals can range from cell damage to the ultimate of cell death. Such cellular breakdown manifests itself superficially in lines, wrinkles, dry skin, loss of elasticity, and skin discoloration. On a deeper level, free radical destruction can substantially destroy the collagen and elastin support system, degrade DNA, damage vital enzymes, impair critical immune functions, and cause general tissue deterioration.
Certain substances termed as antioxidants have the capability of interrupting or even preventing this cellular onslaught. Another term for antioxidants is free radical scavengers. The term scavenger refers to their ability to provide electrons so that the free radical can attach itself to the antioxidant electron and be rendered harmless before it can attach itself to a so called "healthy" radical and begin the destructive chain reaction.
Factor-A and Factor-A Plus
Factor-A and Factor-A Plus are cutting edge technologies that fall into the category known as Retinoids. Retinoids are a group of naturally occurring and synthetic compounds that have Vitamin A-like biological activity. They play a critical role in skin growth, repair and epithelial cell differentiation. In the past 20 years, tremendous research has focused on certain Retinoids, particularly retinoic acid, for the purpose of treating various skin abnormalities including acne, actinic keratoses (pre-cancerous lesions) and skin changes due to photodamage and aging.
Transformation Line (Containing TGF Beta-1)
The Transformation Line is a remarkable breakthrough that features a
type of cytokne technology focusing specifically on TGF Beta-1 (transforming
growth factor). Cytokines, among other actions, act as intercellular
mediators that signal certain cellular interplays necessary for maintaining
young appearing healthy skin.
Benzoyl Peroxide Group
Benzoyl peroxide is a potent and effective therapy for treating acne. It is currently recognized by the American Academy of Dermatology as being one of the most effective antibacterial agents proven to significantly reduce the presence of P acne bacteria (the bacteria believed to play a primary role in the inflammatory aspect of the acne process).
